520 Signaller Ellis Silas of the 16th Battalion, Australian
Imperial force, was the only artist to paint and sketch
actual battle scenes showing Australian soldiers in action
at Gallipoli. With his mates he went ashore at Anzac Cove
in April 1915 and for the next month he witnessed the
terrible carnage at Gallipoli whilst performing his
du¬ties as signaller in the thick of the fighting, until
he was wounded and had to be taken by hospital ship back
to Egypt. The words and sketches of Ellis Silas give us a
brilliant and moving eyewitness picture of what it was
really like at Gallipoli in 1915. John Laffin has written
an introduction and notes for the modern reader. He
concludes his introduction: "Everything he sketched, he
had seen personally. He was the Anzac artist."
